My MP3 player croaked earlier this week. It was old, I'd had it for three years. I didn't lose any of my music as it was all backed up on my computer, but now I'm musicless which is driving me ABSOLUTELY NUTS. I listen to music before I go to bed and when I walk my dog, and I listen to podcasts, so I'm miserable. I've been borrowing my younger sister's MP3 player just to avoid talking to myself while walking the dog (we like some of the same music, and no that does not mean I like Beiber or One Direction) but obviously I need to get a new one.

So, I have a choice. I can either but the same player I had before for about 50 dollars. It plays music and does nothing else. Or, I can get an IPod touch for 200 dollars, and get significant upgrade, plus I have about 50 dollars in ITunes money that's sitting around my house right now.

Further complicating this is that I won't be able to buy the IPod for two weeks. I recieved a large amount of money for my high school graduation, but I can't have hundreds of dollars of cash in my house. So I took it to the bank and opened a checking account, but my new checks won't arrive for about two weeks. Meanwhile, my mom is refusing to buy the ipod and have me pay her back because I can't do it immediately.

So, what should I do? I don't have any friends to ask, so I'm asking all you anonymous LoL people.
